Thanks for your honesty. Although you didn't believe it, but you are an excellent presenter. That is what people want... honesty and truth. Somebody with your skill level and admitting mistakes... shows your great personality.
Here in my country we have a saying, "the only people who do not make mistakes are the ones who do nothing. All you have done is proved you are only human. I'm glad you left the parts were you made the mistakes as it not only shows your human but also gives other people knowledge that mistakes happen and they can be fixed. Another great project.
I appreciate that you comment all along showing your mistakes. It makes me feel more confident to see that the experts have similar experiences. Excellent video! Thanks!!
I like someone who technically is in a such level admitting his mistakes and still feels that he learns. This is one of the ingredients of succeed people. Congrats.
I absolutely love that table. It's amazing what professional equipment will do for ya in terms of efficiency and simplicity. Vitally important when you charge by the job instead of an hourly rate.
I love the frame. I go overkill on all the things I build so even though it may seem like "too much" I promise it's better than not enough. Nothing you build will fall apart like furniture from Walmart and that "overbuilt" quality is exactly what most people want from a hand made product. Keep doing great things Jimbo! P.S. I'm extremely jealous of your table.
One of the things I really like about your videos is at the end when you show where your project is going to live. Seeing it completed and in situ is so satisfying.
1st of all, great looking bed. Loved your video. Had me a good couple of chuckles. This is a great tutorial on how to build and troubleshoot problems that arise. Great video.
Love the discussion - your words make it a REAL project. p.s. my father in law put together a bed for his daughter (my wife) and never contemplated it being taken apart. Built in the bedroom - had to saw it apart. Too bad, had nice drawers on the bottom....
Very nice build. An old furniture-maker's trick: use a paint scraper to pull off firmed-up glue on panels before the glue sets solid. That eliminates nearly all surface glue and saves the effort and cost of using a belt sander. The trick is to scrape when the glue is firm and pliable, but not overly wet. Too wet and it just scrapes the glue into the wood pores, which can mess up a finish. Saves a bunch of time and usually I can skip the belt sander altogether. Also, your shop is a masterpiece. Subscribed. Thank you.
As a fabricator myself people really don’t understand what time it takes to perfect the products we make. Charging them for actual time on projects is sometimes difficult.
Because the majority of buyers today have no appreciation for quality. In a 'Rooms To Go' and Amazon world, people want a king sized bed for $200 and want it in two days. They also redecorate every couple years which makes sinking money into quality furniture counter-productive in their way of thinking.
I was asked to make a bed frame couple days ago and I refused to do it just because I know the buyer would not appreciate my time spent on it welding cutting and fabricating. I sent him to supermarket to buy one for 100euros
One thing I learned along the way, don't try to reinvent the wheel. For example, if I was building a metal bed frame, I would browse existing ones for ideas. Using that, I can imagine the post and hole system most bed frames use. Love your videos dude. Getting so many ideas ideas from your beautiful work.
The reason for not sanding wood higher than 220 grit is for finish. The finer you sand, the more the pores of the wood close and wont take the stain or any finish. And general finishes is one of the absolute best companies for finish. Its all I use in my furniture shop. Good job on the build.
With Jimbo's videos I always come for the title, and stay for the extra tips and tricks he throws in along the way. So much useful info in every video, thanks!
Ha, I was just looking at an Everlast machine. Trying to decide if I want multi or straight tig. So many decisions! I think it would look better in my shop that Jimbo's! LOL
Well, God didn't make anybody perfect like HE is, as you know, but, in the long run your mistakes were repaired and the finalisation is that the bed frame looks good, and, you're happy and satisfied! Always enjoy watching you work your charm on metal! Good to see you back and happy that you've overcome your sickness! Have a blessed day, Mr. Jim!
To aid in reassembly, you can use a numbered punch or even weld on a mark or dots (. . .. .. ... ... for example) and mark the pieces with their corresponding corner they slot into. Also, for your tab and slot setup, maybe next time try a more simple T and matching slot (looking down from above) with a bottom stop in the receiving part to set height. Great build and I really appreciate you showing all the mistakes, it's very refreshing to see!
You should see my first work bench, my Dad laughed his butt off when he looked at it, I only moved it once and that was with his wrecker boom. After that I engraved each corner and cut it apart and reassembled with half of the metal and still needed a cherry picker to place it where I wanted it. I love your overkill. Great job Jimbo.
I have been welding and fitting since 1999. I built a bed frame, headboard and foot board and it was a shit show lol , the second one went much better. Expert for using Sculpt Nouveau Black Magic. In the end it turned out good.
Me encanta como haces los trabajos , todos precisos y de primera calidad , excelente carisma , jaja bigotes de morsa , muy buen animo , nunca vi alguien que trabaje tan bien el metal enhorabuena
Great job Jimbo iknow about those mistakes they happen i use to build proto type machines for a company but in fabercation it takes time and we can fix our mistakes. That is a realy nice bed
I recently subscribed to your channel and it is very interesting. I'm watching your videos little by little! Congratulations because your creations are truly quality! Greetings from Italy!
I hope you're recovering well. Please take care of yourself, alright? Excited to see more of your work, but with the outbreak of sickness lately, it doesn't hurt to be careful. Stay safe.
Maybe look at getting a flow/form/friction drill and tap if you have more projects like this. Weld a tab with a hole on one rail bolted to the other? Might save time on some of the fab work
Starting on building me a new bed frame tomorrow morning and you gave me some ideas that would work better than how I was planning on doing it. Came out great.
Great job Jimbo It's nice to see you work and how clean and tight all the pieces are. I really like metal and wood furniture, I copy the idea, but the connections will make it a little easier A greeting from Spain.
Jimbo your an amzing fabricator. Love your work. Thats an awesome bed frame you built. As far as your scatch bright idea that was a good call. Eastwood makes a tool or sells one that makes the scotch bright grain look you wanted i can't remember the name right off but should look into it. Im sure someone here will tell you the name of the tool. But its more less scotch bright in form of a small roller. Again great job on the bed frame and i find you to be an inspiration for fabricating 👍
Nice project Jimbo! You know ,I thought I only ran into complications like that. But I guess it’s good to see that we all do and that you just press on through! Cool build!
I have the same problem with tig welding mild steel at work sometimes,the best way i came up with is to add stainless filler constantly when the problem occurs. I am using a mison/argon gas mix.. Really love your videos and projects
That’s probably one of the best build I’ve seen in a steel bed frame Great ingenuity I love the bracket idea. Great job! One question would you be able to fabricate the same brackets for sale ?
Jimbo, The final result came out great! Next time you need a "brushed" finish look try a backer pad and sandpaper discs on your grinder. That method is commonly used in the stainless steel industry with varying grits.
Thanks for your honesty. Although you didn't believe it, but you are an excellent presenter. That is what people want... honesty and truth. Somebody with your skill level and admitting mistakes... shows your great personality.
This is just one of the best DIY videos during covid Quarantine
I THINK YOU DID A GREAT JOB, TRUE SIGN OF A PERFECTIONIST
Here in my country we have a saying, "the only people who do not make mistakes are the ones who do nothing. All you have done is proved you are only human. I'm glad you left the parts were you made the mistakes as it not only shows your human but also gives other people knowledge that mistakes happen and they can be fixed. Another great project.
I'd like to see a video on how you go about quoting a job and estimating the time a project will take. Awesome work, love your videos.
I appreciate that you comment all along showing your mistakes. It makes me feel more confident to see that the experts have similar experiences. Excellent video! Thanks!!
Looks real nice and classic. Like you said, should last forever. It will be a fond memory for you.
I like someone who technically is in a such level admitting his mistakes and still feels that he learns. This is one of the ingredients of succeed people. Congrats.
I'm from the Philippines I watch all your you tube videos and I learned a lot of it
Superb. Super strong and good looking as well.
I absolutely love that table. It's amazing what professional equipment will do for ya in terms of efficiency and simplicity. Vitally important when you charge by the job instead of an hourly rate.
Man you have a 25 year old energy and the brain of an inventor.Thanks for your videos.GBY!
Good video Jimbo. I like a man who's not afraid to show his mistakes, cause, I make a lot of them myself.
Excellent work

absolutely love it!!! if it were to have a side table to match....WOW
1st of all, great looking bed. Loved your video. Had me a good couple of chuckles. This is a great tutorial on how to build and troubleshoot problems that arise. Great video.
I know I’m late to the show.. this is my new favorite channel

I understand overbuild as well, if you're going go, go big and strong. Great workmanship!
The outside edges look great. I am like you I am my worst critic. Great video.
Now looks real nice my friend
Wonderful as always.
Palm sander with 120 finish finishing with clear. Huge fan of your chanel keep it up vary inspiring.
As a fabricator myself people really don’t understand what time it takes to perfect the products we make. Charging them for actual time on projects is sometimes difficult.
Just like any skill, practice makes perfect. The master has goofed more times than the novice has tried.
I some times fight stuff all day.then the next day same job works great I don't get it.
@@brycekelly1454 i like that last part.

I love it man... i love it..
We need to get you some more green in there. Excellent build! Thanks for showing the mistakes as well.
Ha, I was just looking at an Everlast machine. Trying to decide if I want multi or straight tig. So many decisions! I think it would look better in my shop that Jimbo's! LOL
If I recall, his shop was full of green not too long ago! What happened?
Well, God didn't make anybody perfect like HE is, as you know, but, in the long run your mistakes were repaired and the finalisation is that the bed frame looks good, and, you're happy and satisfied!

It's ok Jimbo, it makes all your video's that much more fun to watch.

Perfect job, sir!
